Photography tips
How this image was taken
This night shot was captured using a shutter speed of 1/2 s, an aperture of f/4.5, and an ISO of 800. The longer shutter speed allows sufficient light to be captured while keeping the ISO value at a moderate level.
- Use the stone arch as a natural frame to direct the viewer's eye towards the light projection.
- Use a wide-angle lens of 15 mm to capture both the architectural surroundings in the foreground and the distant subject.
- Ensure steady camera handling during night photography to maintain sharpness despite the long exposure time.
